ratings, and can be sold at any moment. Financial assets held for trading totalled 11.3 million euros as at 30 June 2015.
Free funds were partly invested also in short-term debt securities with fixed payments and maturiti-es, which the Group intends to and is able to hold until maturity. At 30 June 2015, the Group had 1.7 million euros of such debt securities.
At the end of the second quarter, the Group had 170 thousand loan agreements, 70 thousand of them in Latvia, 39 thousand in Estonia, 30 thousand in Lithuania, 13 thousand in Finland, 11 thousand in Spain and 7 thousand in Sweden.
Geographical distribution of loans to customers:
• 23.5% Latvia,
• 18.0% Finland,
• 17.3% Estonia,
• 15.3% Lithuania,
• 15.2% Sweden,
• 10.7% Spain.
At 30 June 2015, loans to customers totalled 282.9 million euros, comprising of:
• the loan portfolio of 312.7 million euros, loans to individuals accounting for 94.9% of the total;
• interest receivable on loans of 21.3 million eu-ros;
• impairment allowances for loans and interest receivables of 51.1 million euros (consisting of an impairment allowance for loans of 38.5 mil-lion euros, an impairment allowance for interest receivables of 7.5 million euros and a statistical impairment allowance of 5.1 million euros).
Bigbank’s loan portfolio is diversified – at the re-porting date the average loan was 1,835 euros and as at 30 June 2015, 40 largest loans accoun-ted for 4.6% of the loan portfolio.
Bigbank AS focuses on the provision of consu-
mer loans. In line with the corporate strategy, as at 30 June 2015 loans against income accounted for 88.3%, loans against surety for 4.0%, loans secured with real estate for 7.5%, loans with insu-rance coverage for 0.1% and loans granted against other types of collateral for 0.1% of the total loan portfolio.
As regards past due receivables, it is important to note that the collection of non-performing consu-mer loans differs significantly from the recovery of loans that have physical collateral (for examp-le, mortgage-backed loans). Due to their nature (as a rule, consumer loans are backed with the customer’s regular income), claims related to ter-minated consumer loans are satisfied in smaller instalments over an extended period rather than in a lump sum raised through the sale of the col-lateral.
Past due loans comprise loan principal that has fallen due. Under the terms and conditions of its loan agreements, the Group may terminate an agreement unilaterally if at least three schedu-led payments are in arrears. When an agreement is terminated, the customer has to settle any outstanding loan principal, any accrued interest, and any collateral claims resulting from the sett-lement delay.
Loans past due for more than 90 days consist of past due principal payments plus the total amount of loan principal that has fallen due in connection with termination of agreements.
To mitigate the risks arising from customers’ pay-ment behaviour and to cover potential credit los-ses, the Group makes impairment allowances, which are created on a conservative basis. At 30 June 2015, impairment allowances totalled 52.0 million euros, consisting of:
• impairment allowances for loan receivables of 38.5 million euros,
• impairment allowances for interest receivables
7Bigbank AS I CONSOLIDATED INTERIM REPORT FOR THE SECOND QUARTER 2015

• statistical impairment allowances of 5.1 million euros,
• impairment allowances for other receivables of 0.9 million euros.
Where debt recovery proceedings do not yield ex-pected results, the underlying receivable is written off the statement of financial position.
At the end of the second quarter of 2015, the Group’s liabilities totalled 251.6 million euros. Most of the debt raised by the Group, i.e. 247.3 million euros (98.3%) consisted of term deposits (including subordinated deposits in the amount of 1.9 million euros).
In the second quarter of 2015, the Group’s equity was 83.9 million euros. The equity to assets ratio amounted to 25.0%.
Financial performance
Interest income for the second quarter reached 16.3 million euros, increasing by 2.3 million eu-ros (16.6%) year over year. The increase in interest income results from growth in the loan portfolio.
The period’s ratio of interest income (annualised) to average interest-earning assets was 18.8% and (annualised) return on the loan portfolio accounted for 20.8% of the average loan portfolio.
Interest expense for the second quarter of 2015 was 1.7 million euros, decreasing by 0.2 million euros year over year (12.1%).
The ratio of interest expense to interest income was 10.4 %. The ratio of interest expense to ave-rage interest-bearing liabilities (annualised) was 2.9%.
Other operating expenses for the second quarter totalled 2.2 million euros (an increase of 0.1 mil-lion euros year over year).
Salaries and associated charges for the second quarter of 2015 amounted to 3.8 million euros,
including remuneration of 2.3 million euros. As at the end of the period, the Group had 454 emp-loyees.
In the second quarter, impairment losses increa-sed by 6.4 million euros, consisting of:
• impairment losses on loan receivables of 5.0 million euros,
• impairment losses on interest receivables of 1.1 million euros,
• impairment losses on other receivables of 0.3 million euros.
Impairment allowances are made on a conserva-tive basis.
Other income for the second quarter of 2015 was 1.3 million euros, the largest proportion of which resulted from debt collection income. In the same period of 2014, other income was 1.7 million eu-ros.
Other expenses for the second quarter reached 0.7 million euros, decreasing by 0.1 million euros year over year.
The Group’s net profit for the second quarter of 2015 amounted to 2.8 million euros. In compari-son to the second quarter of 2014, net profit has increased by 1.0 million euros (53.2%).
Second-quarter profit before impairment allowances was 9.2 million euros, the correspon-ding figure for the second quarter of 2014 was 8.2 million euros (an increase of 12.1%).
